Google Drive - Passcode Lock

This feature has been available for a bit of time now, but is truly one worth highlighting. This option makes Google Drive a usable option in a cart setting possible. For most, the signing in and out combined with the security risks made Google Drive impossible to maintain. With this option, you are safe, secure, and ready to make a fundamental shift in your technology integration. Here is what the process looks like without using password protection.

Open Google Drive

Sign in to it

With our district, you then have to sign into our district website

Do the assignment

Upload the assignment

Sign out of Google Drive

When you have the passcode lock set, your steps are cut down significantly.

Open Google Drive

Put in your password

Upload your assignment

While passcode locking, you can have multiple students signed in to one device without running any security risk. Your students no longer need to sign out of Google Drive making uploading and turning in assignments paperlessly streamlined and easy. For our district, it has saved up to 20 minutes for the younger students!!
